    Well... on another fromrum there have like ten people gotten frozen for falling for flp's or cg'ers and I haven't seen that happen anywhere else today, so I'm wondering if you know about any major freezing actions, since if not that could actually mean that TNT is cracking down on forum users...

    Lot of people have been hacked via an SQL Injection.
    Which basically gives them the power to get into any account, don't know if it has been patched yet, but this is the reason for most of the freezings.

    I got hacked through SQL injection or whatever. It 100% wasn't a CG or a FLP. I don't fall for that junk.

    It happened on friday, I was iced right after.

    I got uniced today. Munsterpoo got the same thing as I did, but he isn't uniced yet.

    However, I'm missing 35m worth in 2 items that the hacker stole, and TNT can't get back.

    I feel stupid for asking this, but what's an SQL injection?
    I tried searching the forum about it, but nothing really mentioned what it was.

    Haha, I can't exactly remember where anymore.
    I think I got it off Deviantart. The image size is a lot bigger so I had to re-size it for the forums.

    This might help you Celestral http://www.cgisecurity.com/questions/sql.shtml
    Also, please keep on topic jaxmyne :}

    Anyway, I was recently frozen, and I only igloo'd for 30 mins or so :0 .. idk, it might be because they detected it, but it seems kinda crazy imo XD

    As a side note, If munsterpoo is still frozen the they can still get you. Since he works for neopets he knows when to come back.

    Forgot to add they can only get your details if you changed your password recentley (so i hear) so make a new account move your expensive stuff then move back when the mess is over?
